Wisconsinâ??s favorite Munchkin was laid to rest on Tuesday, surrounded by family, friends and fans. UW alum Meinhardt Raabe, a Watertown native, played the Munchkin coroner in the 1939 classic The Wizard of Oz. He died April 9 at his home in Orange Park, Fla., but will be buried in the same cemetery as his late wife. He was 94.
